Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: My Son Wants Me To Fight Mayweather, Retire

[Calabis]

You have no clue. A guarantee is a guarantee. This would include PPV. If PPV ****** you still get your guarantee, who ever guaranteed it gives it to you. If PPV does very well you could very well make more than your guarantee. It's simple stuff.

I can see reading comprehension is not your strong suit....here from article since its obvious you can't understand the difference between guar. fight purse and fight guar(which is what Bob gives Manny, which is why he never reveals official ppv totals half the damn time)

First, Mayweather will write himself a check this week in the neighborhood of $25 million. This is similar, in concept, to the guaranteed money that other fighters receive from their promoters, but the check is much larger. Besides Mayweather, only Manny Pacquiao would command that much. What Mayweather earns in addition depends on the success of the event. If 1.4 million or 1.5 million fans buy the fight — which is expected — Mayweather will make about $40 million, Schaefer said.


also this is why Manny doesn't deserve what Mayweather gets, reference total revenue

under this model, the expenses are Mayweather expenses, too, including advertising (radio spots, print ads, TV commercials), publicity (press tours, news conferences), sanctioning fees, legal contracts and insurance. For a fight of this magnitude, Schaefer said the expenses would run about $10 million.

Pac-Boy and D4 will never give you a logical answer

I doubt you even know the meaning of the word.

It is logical to accept that if two fighters generate similar amount of revenue from their fights that they should have a 50/50 split when they fight each other.

Is it logical for Pacquiao to accept a cut that could be half as much as Mayweather will make even though he will be responsible for generate half if not more of the revenue of the fight?

Wait I forgot, you don't even know what the word means.

Too bad only 1.25m bought the event, so Mayweather made between $30-35m

Pacquiao maybe around $30m for the Marquez fight, that is with Arum taking his cut and giving Marquez a fair pay day, What did Ortiz have to settle for $3M? flat fee, well he was happy

You know you've said something which is actually factual. Pacquiao said, (and I quote from the (maybe) reliable press report) "..... I am prepared to take a lesser amount to make the fight happen......." Now although it is more or less what you have just posted, you should take note that it does NOT mention percentages. My opinion is that Pacquiao, being the global icon that he is, may have been expecting to get, say 60%, and, to make the fight happen, conceded somewhat, perhaps to 55%. In this kind of business, 5% is not a small amount. It's a rather large amount.

In other words, although I've written this many times, as have others, the crazies don't seem to understand (how could they, they're crazy) that Pacquiao has NEVER said that he will take LESS THAN 50%. His offer of 55-45 was a genuine sporting gesture, that a real sportsman would have grabbed at.

It's been obvious to me and many others, including the NSAC,-who have said so- that Mayweather has been avoiding this fight all the time, for whatever reasons.

Man if manny even thought that nonsense then he has lost his goddamn mind, and needs to retire because he is BRAIN DAMAGED!!!! Its common knowledge that Floyd grosses more than Manny, WHILE we are often left waiting on actual figures from Manny's fights. SHANE/PAC COMES TO MIND... But what can I say, if again Manny thinks he was somehow entitled to 65 OR EVEN 55 % AS YOU STATED, THEN HE HAS LOST HIS GODDAMN MIND BECAUSE even if he took the 40 million you can take his last 4 fights and easily find x2 fights in those last 4 that he didnt make that amount in x2 fights. Manny isnt making over 20 million because hes borrowing from Arum like crazy and he fights 2-3 times a year.....

For you to even imply that means you have lost your goddamn mind as well. And you dont have to take anything as if I am implying it. I dont post lies son... No reason to.... I have no gain in any of this negotiating, I will simply get paid once again when I bet the farm on Floyd against these manny suckers. Just like always.... When I talk I am factual, so you can drop that condescending bullsh@t from your speech...

Look, unless Mayweather does all the work himself, that means, the work done by maybe a hundred Top Rank employees, cable and PPV people, which he just has no idea how to do (why should he, he's a boxer) if he gets any more than Pacquiao I'd like to see the proof. All YOU know, and everyone else for that matter, (aside from mayweather himself and maybe the IRS and his accountants) is only what Mayweathers splashes all over the internet.

We DO know that he is a serial liar, with avery serious 7-year-old childish complex that he has to outdo everyone else, or APPEAR to do so, and is also a serious narcissist-amongst many other less palatable characteristics.

So why the hell should anyone believe anything he says?

Maybe if you read the damn article I posted you can see he pays for all of these things out of his own pocket...does Manny no, so try again

[jbpanama]

Do you know what an average is??? Or are you a ******??? And I need that viable link while you are at it for the Mosley/PAC fight numbers as well while you talking ish.....

Because if we are playing your game, and you wanna talk about one goddamn fight, then please explain how pac gets 50/50 when he hasnt been a part of the #1 highest grossing fight of all time??/ It was Delahoya and someone else.... I cant remember who it was do you??

Go sit down dude. You are gonna disappear from these boards when manny gets his ass whooped. i can give you a credible source of manny saying he will take a cut just to make the fight happen, and that was barely a month ago, and now all of a sudden, he has to get 50/50 as it would be disrespect to him if he doesnt.... Hes trying his best to cash out, talking about his last fight.. Muhh****ka broke and he gotta fight and he owes arum money right now!!! LMAO!!!!

HERES A LINK BY ELIE SECHBACK THE KOSHER *******

LMAO, are you Pacfans this damn blind or just refuse to accept facts....everyone around him confirmed he made $40 mil after the fact.....do you know how many shirts/memorabilia sold, drinks and food were consumed? He gets a percentage of that too...wake the hell up, Pac is getting ****d by Bob, Mayweather is making huge money simple

In his previous four fights, Mayweather earned $115 million. For Saturday night’s event, he is expected to make about $40 million, and the checks will come for years, determined by the results of many things beyond the fight itself, like the gate and the pay-per-view television numbers. This makes Mayweather a regular among athletes on Forbes magazine’s list of most powerful celebrities, even though the bulk of his annual income is usually generated in one night.

You see that arena Saturday? It’s all Mayweather money. Want a hot dog? Mayweather money. Want a T-shirt? Mayweather money. I need all that.”

Ermm.... Yes, what do you think Pacquiao pays Arum for.

I guess we should be thankful that you guys are tapping away at your keyboards instead of out and about walking the streets.

Yeah 1.5m = about $40m the fight did 1.25m, Floyd made closer to $30m.
